    Bending that thing back is not what is fixing it, its actually residue on the little bump on the underside of the copper piece where it contacts the bottom contact. The act of taking out the copper piece you're inadvertently cleaning it with your fingers etc without realising. I bent back the copper bit as shown in video, and then the switch wouldn't go in far enough to click when I put it back together, so had to pull it apart a second time and bend it back to original. The double clicking issue was fixed regardless. That's my experience with a G602 mouse, if it helps anyone.

    For everyone wanting to try this: Be aware that putting back the little copper spring is harder than it looks! At least for me it was, and it was by far the most difficult part on this whole mission! I got it done however, just a few minutes ago. Will see how long it stays fixed now, because with a lot of fixes, the problem comes back anyway after a few days or even hours. Will give an update soon!

      ​@@Its_Marcus it surprisingly still works! I tried to fix it before by changing the refresh rate, blowing air into it but those things only fixed it for at best, 12+ hours, then the issue came back. Now however, the double click issue is still gone. Didn't happen once so far!
      The only thing is...I find this method to be actually pretty tricky, because I had such a rough time putting the clip back into it. And also, it seems I bend it a little bit too far, so that the sound of my left mouse click changed a little bit. It sounds now less damped. But it's really a tiny difference that I don't even notice anymore.
      I personally think, if one decides to anyway buy a new mouse because of the double click issue, which I wanted to do 2 weeks back, one can definitely try it. Cause then there's anyway nothing to lose and it actually fixed it, in my case!
      Oh and before I forget it: What I didn't mention is, that I also cleaned the little copper spring with WD-40! And I also sprayed WD-40 on the switch sensor itself. WD-40 evaporates super fast, so it's no problem. Just wait a minute to let it dry, then put it back together. I did that, after reading here in the comments that what apperently fixes it by this method, is rather the cleaning of the copper spring, instead of the bend.

    @kaibrunnenG Рік тому +21

    Words of advice and a BIG warning. Make sure your working environment is close off(like a corner of a wall or a close off front and two side) and not messy. Chances of losing your tiny white click(when opening) and the switch springing loose across the room is 50/50. Good luck of finding it if your room is messy. Cutting off the 2 or 3 corners while working will help you find those piece that flew off much easier. Also don't try this if you don't have a proper tweezers because putting the switch back is not easy without one.
    Also good to have another old mouse with a spare switch because chances of the spring breaking if you're not very very careful. Also make sure to know the proper step to put the switch back follow the video 3:03(DO NOT GUESS) or else you will get frustrated because you have been doing it wrong. Been through all that and have done it many times.

    This is literally the BEST video on seeing how that copper tab goes in and how it's held in place. But...
    That flat copper spring tab took the better half of 2 hours to get back in and I still don't know exactly how I did it or how it stays in place, but I know it's correct because the mouse click works (thank god). I haven't had it double click yet, but I've seen multiple videos saying that small bend should fix it, so fingers crossed.
    I think if I was going to attempt to fix the switch again, I'd just go the extra mile and solder in a new one. That tab is just a bigger pain in the ass than it's worth and I can get a 6 pack of switches for $8 on amazon (probably way cheaper if I shop around).
    Moral of the story is... don't play those stupid cookie clicker style games because they destroy your switches.

  • @Gaabrieel777
    @Gaabrieel777 Місяць тому +7

    Ok I used this method and here is some tips and feedback:
    1. You need to be careful when removing the gliders beacuse you may split them. If you see a deep black you are not unsticking them. Make sure you remove them in a correct way.
    2. Opening the clickbox may result a bit tricky, just focus on the edge and with something sharp pull it as seen in the video, keep in mind that you need to open the cover, not the whole box.
    3. Removing and bending the copper piece is not hard, once the piece is out, clean the piece and the box with isopropyl alcohol. Now the hardest tricky part is to put the piece in his place again. I truly recommend to spray isopropyl alcohol before of pushing the little bend piece to his place. Do not push it to stronger or it will not be correctly placed and you will need to do it again. Just try the times you need and then you will achieve it.
    4. This method is really useful if your mouse is really dirty, since you are opening the mouse, you can clean it thoroughly using isopropyl alcohol and a cotton swab. Isopropyl alcohol is specifically made to clean electronic components so it will not damage the mouse.
    5. Taking advantage of the fact that the mouse is open, you can fix the scroll wheel problem just by cleaning it and removing hair and fibers. You can take away the scroll wheel to do it, then you just fit the wheel on his place. Another problem solved.
    This method can be applied to any clicks as they use the same click system (excepting the DPI button and the scroll wheel button). If your mouse is having this issue, do not hesitate, it may result complicated at the moment but then you will be proud and with a fixed mouse.
    Let's see how much time this fix lasts :D
    One week and it is still fixed!

    The thin flexible metal strip can be a bit finicky to re-position correctly, especially without tweezers. The mechanical switch design varies slight between switches making the repair more difficult than shown as I had to get the edges of the switch spring to fit into the fine grooves etched into the supporting metal lever points on my switch.
    That said, i saved myself from making an impulse purchase of a new Naga Trinity.

    Thank you so much for this video. It actually shows what to do for each part. I used this for my G602 and forgot to save it... thought I was going to tear my hair out until I found it again. This fix lasts for about two years before it needs to be repeated. I have to actually bend the spring inwards to get it to go back in place, and I clean it with electronic contact cleaner. It's tricky on the G602 left-click since there's a bunch of "stuff" on either side of the switch. I found it's easiest to face the left side of the mouse towards you, even though it feels wrong. Then get your grippiest tweezers (I just used regular slanted eyebrow-pluckin' tweezers lmao) and grip the front side of the spring, but at a corner. Then gently position it on the front and back side at the same time, approaching from the right side of the mouse. Use a smaller pair of tweezers or a toothpick to press the middle part down. I insert the white button into the switch cover with pointed tweezers and put a piece of tape on the top to keep it in place before putting it back.

    I think with g102 model there is a huge issue with the design. Specifically one design flaw which I found is that there is huge gap (relatively speaking) around the scroll wheel which dust enter through into the interior and accumulate all over. Also a tiny shelf where the scroll wheel sits is the most vulnerable area for dust to accumulate( because it's directly beneath that gap). it messes up the scrolling of the wheel . the worst part is that whenever u scroll the wheel it disturbs the sitting dust which when goes into sensitive part of the sensor make the scrolling error worse.
    The double click issue is also because of tiny dust getting inside the left chamber of left click(lol I don't know technical name ) .
    When I opened mine there was considerable dust sitting beneath that copper switch. So I had to clean that as well.

      Thanks for the kind words! I think the jazz music helps make it look easier lol. There were times I had to fiddle with it for sure. If all else fails, it may be worth it to replace the switch via soldering if you would still like to keep the same mouse.

      @@thiswomps352Yip the jazz music is the icing on the cake. Blends in perfectly with your vid.
      I avoided doing soldering, since i have never done soldering myself. I have seen multiple people doing it online, but i have never tried it out myself. Yeah i do like this mouse but i would also hate to create a hiroshima due to my lack of skills.
      If worse comes to worse and yeah im entirely fedup of fixing the clicker, then yeah i will order and take the click box, do some trial/error first on some other mouse and then give it a try on this mouse.

    Awesome video, it really helped. For those who want to try this, clean the contact side( scrape oxidation) I've tried to pull little piece of paper on the contacts using pressure of the pin. Worked as well, u dont have to remove the pin from the switch. Anyway if you removed the pin, have patience and do it as is on the video. Good luck, it's worth.

    Thank you. This method worked fine for my Razer DeathAdder Elite which started doing this after 4-5 years of daily use.
    You made it look easy. It's not. I spent maybe half an hour trying to get that copper thing back in. 😩
    Clicking feels much sturdier now. *No more pesky double clicking!*
    Even the middle mouse button is now working properly again! 🤩 Because I removed a SPOOL OF ARM HAIR around the rotating axle which prevented it from getting pressed all the way down.
    Another spool of hair accumulated around the laser sensor. I recommend lifting the main PCB and cleaning around there, too, if you have the same mouse.
    I thought about using rubbing alcohol first, but decided that it wasn't really dirty, so I didn't use any cleaning agent at all, just the screwdriver on some of the small pieces of skin debris that stuck to the plastic outside of it. And tweezers to remove stuck hair. Good lighting helps to spot them easier.
    The problem with the left click was purely mechanical. It needed an extra "oomph", like you showed. Thanks again. God bless.

    Pro tip for the little white button in the housing. To keep it in place while reinstalling it, use a piece of painter's tape! Just stick the housing to it, then insert the button into its slot and press down to stick it to the tape, too.
    This way you can reinstall it, without losing that stupid little thing, and you just peel the painter's tape off after!

      Hey, me from 9 months ago, apparently our logitech G600 double clicks both left and right mouse button, but using this video, not even having to disassemble the chopper part of the mouse switch, what we did was just open the omron housing, blow the chopper part for a bit, testing both switched with double click mouse tester page, and if blowing the switches fixes the double click problem (with absolute 0 double click on both switches), we just close down the black housing. Make sure to not forget the white bump thing on the housing! This fixed our mouse, and our mouse is good to go again. But yea we might have to recheck the switch in 9 months or when it starts to double click again.

    Fyi most mouse clickers are the same, so I just bought and old deflective mouse and used the left clicker to replace the damaged clicker, good as new. why I used the left clicker over the right clicker on the used mouse is because in general everyone uses the right clicker and rarely used the left side so most likely the right clicker on the used mouse is warned out, hope it helps.

    I fixed my mouse today (July 11 2023)
    I both bent it back and cleaned the entire switch as best as I could, and it worked perfectly (though it was a pain in the ass to put the switch back again)
    I will edit my comment when I have to fix my mouse again
    Edit: Today (July 17 2023) my mouse broke again with the same issue
    I just fixed it again, but this time, I cleaned it the absolute best I could (I spent like 20m just cleaning it), and it now works again
    I will edit my comment once again when I have to fix my mouse again. This could have been my fault or just bad luck
    Edit 2: Today (July 18 2023) my mouse broke yet again, same issue
    Fixed it again and this same day it broke YET AGAIN, for the fourth time already
    After doing a lot of testing, I've come to the conclusion that, in my specific case, it's not because of the little piece of metal, but instead, the switch itself. - This is just bad luck of mine, but the fix showed in the video will most likely work for most people
    I have come to the conclusion of the switch being broken by using something else to use for testing it, and it still had the exact same issue
    I tried replacing the little piece of metal with the one that had the right click switch (which worked fine) and I put the left piece of metal in the right switch instead. Same thing, the right click still worked fine but the left click didn't.
    So, it's most likely that the switch itself literally died somehow (I can't understand why it didn't work, click switches have a VERY simple mechanism), so I gave up.
    I'm probably gonna buy some replacement switches (hopefully this time they are going to be good switches), but I'm not sure yet. I'm using an old crappy mouse for now until I find a solution.
    If you're in the same problem as I am, then it might be a good idea to buy a new switch too, as it's around 8 times cheaper than buying a whole new mouse
